The generals looked up at Yun Zheng, who had a serious face, waiting for him to speak.
"Tomorrow we will prepare food at the fourth watch and go out to battle at the fifth watch. Guanshan is a must-win area for our army. In the past two days, Lang Tan has basically captured the mountainside. Tomorrow we must capture the top of the mountain in a battle. Even if we burn Guanshan into a white field."
Hearing that Yun Zheng started arranging military strategies, Wang Anshi sighed and had to shut his mouth. Is Duan Yanxiu Yun Zheng, Chen Lin, and Wen Yanbo being killed as scapegoats? It has become a fact that the lost heads cannot grow back. He can only wait.
Privately, I seek justice from Yun Zheng and others for Duan Yanxiu, but in the public eye, this is all I can do.
It was said that they went into battle at the fifth watch, but Lang Tan led a raid on the Liao army's camp on Guanshan Mountain at the third watch. Although they did not succeed, they took advantage of the night to destroy the antlers and yaks built by the Liao people on the top of the mountain.
Triangular thorn buried in shallow soil.
In fact, the fighting on Guanshan Mountain has never stopped since the beginning. When it rained, the Liao army attacked from the top of the mountain in the rain, and was repelled one by one by the Song army guarding the mountainside under the cover of artillery fire.
Within two days, Guanshan had become an important offensive and defensive location for the Song and Liao armies.
At dawn, the army was eating in a hurry, and the fighting was still in full swing on Guanshan Mountain. The explosion of gunpowder bombs, the scream of crossbows tearing through the air, and the clear screams of Liao or Song troops falling from high places.
Passed into the ears of every soldier.
Suddenly, a raging fire broke out on Guanshan Mountain. The few bushes on the mountain were quickly scorched by the fire and then burned. The orange-red flames contrasted with the morning glow on the horizon.
Zhao Min's cavalry was hiding in the shadow at the foot of Guan Mountain to serve as Lang Tan's backup. If the predictions were correct, the Liao cavalry would definitely come here to raid the artillery positions that had been set up.
The Liao people had already tried to sabotage it yesterday. Today, Guanshan was in danger and they had no reason not to come over and try again.
The purpose of setting fire was to prevent the Liao people from transporting troops from the back of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Previous attempts had not worked well. The strong south wind would always spread the fire to the Song army's offensive path.
At the second watch of the night last night, a westerly wind suddenly blew in the sky, and the wind was quite strong. Lang Tan was the first to send troops, in order to take advantage of this rare westerly wind.
Most of the shrubs and grass on the east side of Guanshan Mountain have been cleared away by the Liao people. There is a time limit for burning kerosene bombs. If it weren't for the fact that he was on the mountainside of Guanshan Mountain, Lang Tan would really like to use white phosphorus bombs.
Sure enough, the Liao cavalry came. After most of the Liao army passed in front of him, Zhao Min rushed out of the shadow of Guanshan with a roar. These cavalry from Qingtang immediately cut off the running Liao army.
, this is their mission. As for the Liao army that has entered the western part of Guanshan, Jiang Zhe will naturally deal with it.
Zhao Min's horse stabbed into the chest of the Liao cavalry. Under the rapid running of the horse, the horse suddenly turned into a bow. Zhao Min did not abandon the horse. He roared and pushed forward.
, the well-made Ma Shan used powerful force to eject the half-dead Liao man.
Taking advantage of the strong thrust brought by Ma Shan's spin, Ma Shan's spear tip hit another Liao soldier's neck hard. The sharp spear blade actually cut off the Liao soldier's head under the action of the huge force.
Come down.
Just when he was concentrating on killing the enemy, the Qingtang cavalry from the brigade had already crossed his horses and entered the battle group. For a moment, the battlefield was filled with the sound of killing and crossbows and arrows were flying.
Zhao Min put down his visor very experiencedly. It is most dangerous during a chaotic battle. God knows if a stray arrow will fly over and kill you. Safety is the first priority in everything.
The prince has ascended the throne, and the great glory and wealth are waiting for him to enjoy. How can he lose his life in this barren mountain and wilderness?
If the commander-in-chief hadn't been furious yesterday and the supervisors had gone crazy, he would never have led the troops into battle in person.
Seeing countless cavalry rushing past him, Zhao Min stopped his horse with satisfaction. There was no living enemy around him.
I have already shown my due bravery, and all that is left is to follow the army to complete the predetermined military objectives and intercept the enemy's army.
There is a cart in the cavalry group, and the cart pulls rolls of barbed wire. As long as the wooden stakes on the barbed wire are nailed into the ground, a simple fortification is completed. This thing has a miraculous effect on the cavalry.
After the first line of barbed wire was laid, sidecars quickly formed a new line of defense along the line of barbed wire. The wooden doors on the sidecars were opened, and the strung-up crossbows were immediately activated to selectively attack those wearing clothes.
Leather-armored Leather Army.
Zhao Min raised his head and looked at Guanshan, and saw that the fighting on the mountain was still fierce. The commander said that he wanted to encroach on the Liao camp and maintain the necessary pressure. At this time, there was no need for cavalry to bypass Guanshan and attack the Liao camp at the foot of Guanshan.
Launch a desperate attack.
It is said that that would trigger the Liao people's eight-door golden lock formation, but the commander said the last sentence with a smile. Zhao Min didn't think the commander would really care about that bullshit formation.
He is also a member of the Jingxi Army, but his identity is different from other soldiers. Yun Zheng has no idea about the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation. Naturally, Zhao Min doesn't know much about this ancient formation. He has been fighting for many years and has encountered enemies.
This is the first time we have set up a large formation.
However, he firmly believed that under the bombardment of artillery, any large formation would turn into dust.
The cavalry penetrated the Liao cavalry team. It only took a meal to hold on, and the barbed wire fence was already erected. After another meal, the sidecars had already begun to show their power. There was no Liao cavalry that entered the encirclement of the Song army.
Frantically trying to get in, those Liao cavalry who had already entered the encirclement and were being massacred by the Song army tried their best to stand out.
The Song Army has been operating side carriages for some years. Sun Dazhi's reputation has not been prominent in these years, but no one in the Song Dynasty can match him in operating side carriages. The most rare thing is that this person's ambition for fame is extremely weak and he never
He competed with the generals for merit, but when it came time to discuss merit and reward him, he would always hide aside silently, so much so that Yun Zheng praised him for his demeanor as a great general of the Han Dynasty.
However, whenever he uses this person, Yun Zheng will be very relieved. This classmate who has been with him since the youth army may have shortcomings in offense, but he has been studying defense for more than ten years.
Therefore, in the stormy attack of the Liao army, the side-carriage formation was always as stable as a mountain. The side-cars either sprayed out powerful crossbows or spewed out flames, and the approaching Liao people would without exception be suddenly thrown away from the side.
Assassination with a spear that came out of the gap in the van! (To be continued)
